3 July 2023, Creamer Media: Successful Barrick partnership keeps gold shining for Mali

“...Barrick president and CE Mark Bristow has said... in a media release published at the weekend... that the Loulo-Gounkoto complex, one of the world’s top ten gold producers, was the largest business in terms of enterprise value in the whole of West Africa. Together with the Morila mine, the complex has contributed $9.3-billion to the Malian economy and accounted for between 5% and 10% of the country’s gross domestic product over the past ten years.”

Infuriating and ironic.
